These Nutella cookies taste like chewy brownies in cookie form. They are a quick and easy last minute dessert that take only 15 minutes to make from start to finish.
Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Add Nutella and egg white to a large mixing bowl. Stir with a spatula until the egg is fully mixed in and incorporated. Your mixture will be like a thick pancake batter. (See photo in post for reference).
Using a 2 tsp cookie scoop, scoop cookie mixture and release onto prepared cookie sheet, spaced 2 inches apart. Because the batter is thick and sticky, it should not spread that much. (See photo in post for reference).
Bake cookies for about 10-12 minutes (mine were done at 11 minutes) or until done. When cookies are done, they will have a shiny crinkle surface and will be puffed up. Let cookies cool (they will flatten as they cool) and set on cookie sheet before removing them with a cookie spatula.
Notes
I used fresh egg white from a US standard large egg. The egg white should weigh about 33 grams. I have not tried making these with carton egg whites.
You can double the recipe to make more cookies.
Because the cookies spread a lot, I found that 2 tsp was the ideal amount of batter. If you don't have a 2 tsp cookie scoop you can just use a teaspoon to measure out 2 teaspoons.
